In-Office BPH Therapy

In-Office BPH Therapies are non-surgical treatment options that are performed in the urologist’s office generally in less than one hour. These procedures do not require general anesthesia and allow the patient to return home after the procedure has been performed. Research has proven that minimally invasive treatments are a safe, effective and durable option for BPH with very few side effects.1,2 These therapies are ideal for patients who do not want to take daily medications for the rest of their lives, dislike the side effects and ongoing costs of medication or do not want the risks, side effects or high costs of invasive surgery. The most common in-office BPH therapies are Transurethral Microwave Thermotherapy (TUMT) and Transurethral Needle Ablation (TUNA).

“A majority of patients undergoing either CTT or Prostiva will state … this is the BEST thing for my health I have ever done… why don’t more patients know about these procedures.” – J. Randall Beahrs, MD
